United Autosports Ready For Brands Hatch Championship Assault

1 Mins read

United Autosports head in to the fifth round of the Avon Tyres British GT Championship this weekend at Brands Hatch just half a point away from the title lead.

Following a long summer break of nearly two months the Anglo-American head in to the latest race weekend in a strong position with all three cars finishing in the top ten in the last round at Snetterton.

Leading the way for the team is the pairing of Mark Patterson and Matt Bell in the Audi R8 LMS who will be looking to take the lead of the championship with them when they leave the Kent circuit.

In the supporting roles are the two McLaren MP4-12C GT3 of Zak Brown/Alvaro Parente and Glynn Geddie/Jody Firth.

Richard Dean, Team Owner and Managing Director, United Autosports is confident of a good result this weekend. “Leaving Snetterton with all three cars in the top ten was a massive boost for the team and we are hoping to build on that success at Brands Hatch.

“Mark and Matt in the Audi are only half a point off leading the championship so hopes are high for a good result.”
